Welcome from the
Chief Operating Officer

Welcome to the Appalachian Transportation Institute! I am excited to share our new branding with you. This year marks 20 years since our institute was formed. We thought this milestone anniversary was a great opportunity to reflect and recommit to our foundational purpose, while recognizing how the transportation landscape has changed and how essential technology will be to the future of transportation.

Appalachian Transportation Institute was our name when we were founded in 1998. Returning to our “roots” gives us a more tangible identity by bringing our mission – advancing transportation in Appalachia – front and center.

One thing that has not changed is our dedication to improving the economic competitiveness and livability of our region. We are always striving to anticipate, identify, and solve transportation and infrastructure challenges in order to revitalize the Appalachian economy and establish our region as a leader in rural transportation.
